In the fictional “Odd Island”, all the numbers contain only odd digits. The counting numbers are listed in increasing order: 1, 3, 5, 7, …, 19, 31, 33, … . What is the 55th counting number on the island?
In the grid below, the first row and first column contain the numbers from 10 to 19. Fill each empty cell by adding the topmost number in its column to the leftmost number in its row. For example, A = 17 + 14 = 31 and B = 19 + 18 = 37. What is the sum of all numbers in the completed grid?
The time now is 16:56, and Archie’s 12-hour digital clock shows 4:56 P.M. Its digits are in increasing consecutive order. At 12:17 P.M. or A.M., the display shows 12:17 P.M. or A.M., respectively. How many minutes later will the clock again show digits in increasing consecutive order?
Read all displayed numeric digits, ignoring the colon and A.M./P.M. Single-digit hours have no leading zero.
